V is for Victory! is a new shot. It's of the source of a great many of the photos I post here, so thought I'd share an overall view for a change. Last year this rose garden was exceptionally beautiful but this year has it beat. All of the gardens on our grounds are planted and tended by volunteer residents, to whom we are all deeply grateful. (Only work like lawn mowing and tree maintenance is done by outside folk for hire.)
